About Us

The UN Inter-agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation (IGME) was formed in 2004 to share data on child mortality, harmonize estimates within the UN system, improve methods for child mortality estimation, report on progress towards the Millennium Development Goals and enhance country capacity to produce timely and properly assessed estimates of child mortality. The IGME, led by the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) and the World Health Organization (WHO), also includes the World Bank and the United Nations Population Division of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs as full members.

The Inter-agency Group for Child Mortality Estimation (IGME) is constituted by representatives of UNICEF, WHO, The World Bank and the United Nations Population Division. The child mortality estimates presented in this database have been reviewed by IGME members. As new information becomes available, estimates in the database will be updated more frequently than those appearing in official publications and reports produced by IGME members. Differences between the estimates presented in the database and those in particular publications may also arise because of differences in reporting periods or in the availability of data during the production process of each publication and other evidence.
